Top chartbusters of 2009

The year 2009 had been a great year for the music lovers as the industry churned out various hits each with a different style ranging from soft romantic numbers to rustic numbers, youthful songs to fun-filled light music. Let us have a look at the songs which topped the music charts in the year which is dying off.
Emotional Atyaachar
This song from ‘Dev D’ was an unexpected hit and was liked by younger generations because of its uniqueness and difference. The song has been sung by Bony Chakravarthy. Composed by Amit Trivedi, it echoes the music and energy of marriage bands. It is by far the greatest hit of 2009 and stands out among other songs released during that period.

Masakalli

Oozing freshness in every way, this expressive number from A.R.Rehman swept the music lovers off their feet. This fun-filled light number from the film ‘Delhi-6′ sung by Mohit Chauhan is still a hot favorite of music channels.

Dhan Te Nan
This edgy, energetic, and rustic number from ‘Kaminey’ has a touch of rock to it. Composed by Vishal Bhardwaj, the song has been sung by Sukhwinder Singh and Vishal Dadlani. This rocking number has topped the music charts of 2009.

Tera Hone Laga Hoon
This is by far the most romantic and soothing number of 2009. Pakistani Singer Atif Aslam has sung this song with Alsiha Chinoi. Pritam has composed a beautiful love ballad for the recently released film ‘Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani’.

All Izz Well
This youthful, campus number from ‘3 Idiots’ has given a perfect ending to the year. This fun track has raw energy and is filled with whistles in the background. Sung by Sonu Niigaam, Swanand Kirkire and Shaan and composed by Shantanu Moitra, it is a hot favorite among all music channels.

Asin was first choice of Asutosh's Movie opposite Abhishek

She might be the latest entrant in B-Town, but this does not stop this southern beauty to reject big banners if the roles offered to her are not up to the mark.

CHECK OUT: Asin-LONDON DREAMS is an ideal birthday gift

According to latest reports Asin refused to do a film with Ashutosh Gowarikar after she found out that the role offered to her in the film is not going to make a difference to her career in Bollywood. The fact that Asin's last film LONDON DREAMS evoked a lukewarm response at the box-office has made Asin a bit more careful about the kind of roles she has to play in order to secure her career in the slippery lanes of Bollywood.

With Asin going the extra mile to secure her career, let's hope this sacrifice turns out to be a better bet in the long run.

Paa – Playful Affectionate Awesome!

Paa, a modern-day film about inexplicable decisions we take in life…

Paa is a beautiful contemporary tale of human relationships, how easily they can be broken mended healed renewed refreshed cherished and adored. The movie quite simply in a span of 2 and a half hours shows the two faces of relationships. One- how simple they are to form and break. Two- how difficult it is to fulfill or maintain them.

We basically see the movie through the eyes of Auro (Amitabh Bachchan), a twelve year old kid, who suffers from a rare genetic disorder called Progeria. Auro is like typical twelve year old, with his own share of tantrums but a striking streak of understanding in him. He is raised by his single mum Vidhya (Vidya Balan) who is a gynecologist, and his grandmother (Arundhati Nag) who he naughtily calls 'Bum'. Fate being such an unpredictable thing reunites Auro and his father MP Amol Atre(Abhishek Bachchan), through a school competition.
 he movie will surprise you in a superb manner. Right from unexpected turns to witty one-liners like- 'Google se bachke kahan jaoge?' What's fresh about this movie is the way the characters approach problems that seem insurmountable so coolly. The way Bum handles the news of her daughter getting pregnant out of wedlock and the way Amol handles the media over news of his lovechild is an example.

There are few places that you'd wish you did not have to see. Like the one where Amol and his father discuss shit while having tea and biscuits. And the other where Auro describes how the potty of the whole world goes inside your body if you eat fish. Yupp. Seafood lovers beware. You might end up wanting to puke!

The picturization of songs are beautiful and actually adds sense to the story. For example, Ittefaq se beautifully portrays the journey of Vidhya from being 'so-in-love' with Amol to the twin pack pregnancy kit.

Big B has done complete justice to the role of Auro. Although at times you can see through Auro and into Amitabh, for the major part, Auro keeps you so engaged that you forget that's Amitabh Bachchan playing that role! As Auro, he takes you through highs and lows, laughter and choky throat.

Vidya Balan once again has proved that she is the queen of effortless acting. She looks very Indian and very beautiful in her cotton saris. Even in her western wear she is fine, except that her strut was a tad bit gawky as if she wasn't confident about her high heels.

Abhishek Bachchan is squeaky clean and good-looking. He is compelling. But he still hasn't reached the point where he can stir up your emotions.

Paresh Rawal is good as ex-politician Atre. When he makes a fool out of himself while talking for the first time ever to his grandson, his expression is worth looking at!

Arundhati Nag is perfect as Vidya's onscreen mother. She has the same effortless style as Vidya that makes her endearing.

Ilaiyaraja's music is soothing and at times teases and tickles you. R. Balki's direction is first-class. Hats off to make-up artists Christien Tinsley and Dominie Till.

Paa is a film that will make you laugh and cry when you're inside the theatre. But when you come out, you'll be surprised you have a self contented smile on your face!
